Common Issues & Troubleshooting

Can I edit or delete a label later?
Yes! You can edit or delete any existing label from the label management page.

What if I don’t see the “Manage Label” button?
Make sure you’ve selected a website and are viewing its page. Refresh the page if needed.

Can I assign multiple labels to a single website?
Absolutely! Websites can have more than one label.

Will removing a label unassign websites from it?
Yes, deleting a label will remove it from all associated websites. Make sure that’s what you want before confirming.

Can I assign multiple websites at once for the same label?
Of course! This can be done from the “Labels” page in your account, where you can select all the required sites and assign them in bulk to a single label.
